Weekly Dinner 3
While brainstorming for a Japanese dish which the guys would love, I recalled that they consumed far more than their share of okonomiyaki, an iconic dish widely served in the Kansai region. It's really not hard to make; finely shredded cabbage, flour, water, eggs, green onion, and water chestnut as the core ingredients, add pork, chicken, beef, or shrimp as the meat, and top with mayo and sauce (yakisoba sauce works pretty well as a substitute.)
There were issues with the meal though; due to some mix up on my part, the batter didn't cook entirely right, leaving it slightly more doughy than it should, and I didn't have the right toppings for it. I thought it was merely 'meh,' though the guys loved it.
But beyond any of that, I took a blurry pic, so I have nothing to show you this week. :(
I will, however, offer you a link to the Wiki entry, which should work.
